Convenient Noose Knot

Welcome to The FinTalk Fishing Knots details page for tying the Convenient Noose. Follow the directions step by step and practice tying any particular knot over and over until you have it mastered. Learn it and practice it so when you are faced with changing lures or rigs in the middle of a hot bite you can quickly tie your knot and get your line back in the water. Sometimes the bite is only on for a little while so getting caught up with tying and re-tying rigs can cost valuable fish time. Remember not only should you be able to tie your knot fairly quick but you should be able to tie your fishing knot properly fairly quick. Nothing is worse than having what you know was a big daddy fish and losing him only to wind up your line to see your knot failed. It is enough to ruin your day, especially if the fishing is slow. So enjoy learning to tie these knots and for more detailed instructions check out "Fishing Knots and Rigs' by Geoff Wilson.

KNOT NAME:

Convenient Noose

KNOT DESCRIPTION:

This knot came about through not
leaving enough line to complete the very necessary third wrap on a Centauri knot.
It does not slip and retains adequate strength so I have illustrated it.
